See the signal flow in 3D
Active routes light up and pulse end-to-end. Internal normalling paths glow as ghost curves so you can read the rack while you patch — no guesswork, no tracing cables by hand.
3D Patchbay Simulator · ZimmerTools
Patch.
Route.
Visualize.
BayPatcher is an interactive 3D patchbay with a read-only 2D overview. Build your TRS layout, swap outboard gear in and out of the rack, and inspect signal flow without losing the room.
Coming soon Currently in private development — built for engineers who think in signal paths.

live render half-normal full-normal signal flow
// Capabilities
A patchbay you can
actually reason about.
Inspect it in 2D
A movable overview card renders active chains, rear wiring, front patches, and warnings from the same routing engine. Snap it beside the fixed panels and keep it where you left it.
One plug per jack
A real connectivity engine enforces hardware rules and resolves every route as you patch.
Half / full normalling
Switch normalling mode per module and watch the rear-jack routing change with it.
Swap the whole rack
Drop in real outboard — preamps, comps, interfaces — across 30 hot-swappable slots.
Save, recall, undo
Full undo/redo history and portable .bpatch session files — now with a session title, room, and freeform notes baked in. Pick up exactly where you left off.
Document the whole room
Turn a session into paperwork you can wire from. Every export is built from the live routing — nothing retyped, nothing drifts.
- Wiring PDF Rear wiring by jack number, front patches by cable colour, a normalled-route map, and automatic routing warnings.
- Label strips Printable front & rear patchbay labels, named from the gear each point connects to — print, cut, done.
- Session notes Title, room, and notes saved in the .bpatch and printed on the report, so you remember why a layout exists.
// In the rack
34 hardware models. Every jack and channel wired to spec.
1 patchbay model + 33 outboard/interface models implemented so far.
